With 3 523 fatalities (+499 in 24 hours), France now has the third highest number of deaths globally after Italy and Spain. 

France on Tuesday reported its highest daily number of deaths from COVID-19 since the coronavirus epidemic began, saying 499 more people had died in hospital to bring the toll to 3,523

There are now 22,757 people hospitalised in France with COVID-19, with 5,565 of them in intensive care, health official Jerome Salomon told reporters in his daily update

The French death toll includes only those who died in hospital and not those who died at home or in old people's homes.

I can't imagine the real numbers of France if we add the people who died at home or in old people's homes :air:

 

1. Italy 12 428 deaths

2. Spain 8 269 deaths

3. France 3523 deaths

4. US 3415 deaths

5. China 3305 deaths

Can we trust China's numbers though? :poot:

Regardless, this is tragic. I seriously hope a vaccine and treatment are coming in the near future. We already have promising signs but the testing and trial process is going to take a while :/

Whimsical bitch

THIS! China would never make themselves look bad globally and are most definitely not telling the whole truth on the amount of COVID-related deaths they took as a hit. I mean it STARTED in China! As a nurse and seeing this stuff first hand, I find this almost impossible to believe.

There are many situations where China has dictated what they allow others to know about their country.

The sinophobia on this thread... far too much. Funny how everyone jumps to say China's numbers may be fake but literally no one questions the other countries 

hmmm

It's not sinophobia, nobody is questioning the other countries because their numbers don't seem suspicious... Also consider that it originated in China, has been a pandemic there longer than any other country and its population is larger than all the countries above it in the list combined. The numbers should be higher.

It is ok to question things without being accused of some -ism or -phobia.

How did I know someone in here would resort to saying people are "phobic" of China here?

Like literally the person who opened this thread is doing that.
"I can't imagine the real numbers of France if we add the people who died at home or in old people's homes".
Furthermore, have you ever lived in China? Or had anything to do with their government? If so, how could you ask why people would doubt them:saladga:

Are you familiar with the level of censorship that goes on in China? They censored Dr. Li who tried to warn people about the virus and then keywords on the virus and criticism of the president on Wechat.

and ontop of that they have multiple news networks broadcast in English specifically for this kind of thing, To spread only positive things about China to the outside world.

Not trusting the the Numbers isn't Sinophobic, Even Chinese People don't trust their government when it comes to COVID-19.

Nobody is being sinophobic, we’re being corruption-phobic. The Chinese government is extremely pro censorship and hides a lot of things. Idk how you know the word sinophobic but not that fact but n e ways:

there's literally 1.400 Million people in China vs 65M in France... No way the numbers in China are real, especially knowing they were caught by surprise with the disease
